Hi, my name is Tim Holiday, and I'm going to show you how to cook hard-boiled eggs in the microwave. The things you will need: an egg, a microwave-safe bowl, a microwave and oven mitts. The first step is to place the egg into a microwave-safe bowl. Next, fill the bowl with water until the egg is completely submerged. Place the bowl into the microwave and cook for around four minutes. Make sure the water comes to a complete boil. Remove the bowl from the microwave using oven mitts. Let the egg sit in the water for about three to four minutes. Now, rinse the egg with cold water and peel the outer shell before eating. And that's how you cook hard-boiled eggs in the microwave.
